Broncos Extend Kicker Wil Lutz on Three-Year Deal Through 2028

Denver rewarded his clutch 2025 form in a move reflecting Sean Payton's long-standing trust.

Overview

  • The team confirmed the three-year extension through 2028 after NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero first reported the agreement.
  • Lutz is 17-of-20 on field goals and 24-for-24 on extra points this season, with an NFL-leading four game-winning kicks.
  • His recent 5-for-5 outing with a walk-off against the Chiefs capped an award-winning stretch that underscored his value.
  • Financial terms were not disclosed by the Broncos, with 9NewsMike Klis reporting an approximate $3.9 million average that would place him ninth at the position.
  • The move maintains continuity with head coach Sean Payton, who coached Lutz in New Orleans and brought him to Denver in 2023, as the 9-2 Broncos target a strong finish.
